In a world of diversity where often values clash, music leaps across language barriers and unites people of quite different cultural backgrounds. The project intends to improve the effective integration practices between migrant and local youths in the EU community using music to foster a multicultural enhancement path.

Through these practices, they and other local youth are afforded equal voice and the opportunity to grow together through reciprocal multicultural enhancement.
